Welcome to Sri Lanka!
This island off the coast of India has long been on my bucket-list for loads of reasons, like having the best safari outside of Africa, boasting eight UNESCO World Heritage sites to explore, and lots of lovely, gorgeous beaches complete with idyllic white sand and crystal clear water that's perfect for surfing.
In fact, for an island about a ¼ of the size of the UK, there's loads to see and do, depending, of course, on what you want out of your trip.
Coming up, I'm going to tell you about getting here, some tips on transport, then some stuff on food, money and language and some awesome places to visit.
So, let's get on with it…
We flew 10 hours direct from Heathrow to Colombo, which is Sri Lanka’s capital city. Flights arrive at Bandaranaike International airport, which is 30km north of the city.
Taxis are very cheap in Sri Lanka, and this can be the easiest, and certainly quickest way to reach your destination from the airport. If you’re heading straight into Colombo you can catch the express bus which takes about 25 minutes, but to be honest the taxis are so cheap it’s a no-brainer.
To enter the country, you’re gonna need a visa. Now this can be done when you get here, but, after ten hours in the air ..why bother with the extra admin!?
Get it done before you leave. Applications cost $35 and take around 24 hours to process.
Also, you’re gonna need to make sure that your vaccinations are up to date, like your tetanus and typhoid. Check with your GP beforehand.
What do you need to know about public transport in Sri Lanka? Well, in all honesty, quite a bit…
Public transport conditions aren't great, but are popular with locals as it's very cheap.
Buses tend to leave when they’re full, so for anyone on a schedule we’d give them a miss.
Also, trains are often slower and less efficient than simply getting a taxi.
My advice: take anything described as luxury or express with a generous pinch of salt.
The key thing in Sri Lanka is that your money goes a long way, for example our two-hour taxi from Colombo to Unawatuna cost 9000 rupees, which is about 40 quid, so for this reason we made the most of getting around with private car hire and tuk-tuks.
Hiring a driver to chauffeur you around is surprisingly affordable and, let's face it, way more luxurious! It's also a big timesaver which is a massive a bonus.
The roads are in surprisingly good condition...
...just watch out for the tourists, the cyclists, the buffalo, stray dogs, and massive lizards they all make it a little hair-raising at times.
We used Uber to navigate Colombo and Red Cabs for everywhere else.
Failing that you could always haggle for a tuk tuk, which are ideal for quick journeys. There are a couple of things you need to know before you start off. Number 1 always agree the price before settings off and number 2 be direct about where you want to go, don’t settle for any detours or any other places they might want to take you.
Anyway, up next, here are some of my favourite things to do in Sri Lanka.
Unawatuna is loved by locals and tourists alike, and with palm trees, white sands and blue waters, it's easy to see why it’s one of Sri Lanka’s most popular beaches.
Right behind the beach is a small shopping strip for souvenirs and restaurants...
… And Ladies, going topless on the beach is a definite no-no, and if you're a couple, make the P in PDA stand for PRIVATE, not PUBLIC.
OK, Newsflash!!! Sri Lanka has the best safari outside of Africa since the country has one of the highest rates of indigenous plants and animals in the world. Udawalawe National Park is a personal highlight of mine and home to some 200 different species.
Injured in Sri Lanka - Local Family Look After Me. ????????
Things don't always go to plan. I had an accident before I even made it to my hotel in Kandy.
With an injured ankle there wasn't much I could do on this trip to Sri Lanka. Fortunately I was taken in and looked after by a local family.

Nelum Kole Restaurant - To begin the day we started off at Nelum Kole Restaurant, a Sri Lankan food restaurant serving a massive buffet of different Sri Lankan food dishes. Overall, the food was good, but not the best Sri Lankan food I had. Flavors tasted too similar to each other. It is a good place to taste variety though.
Dilmah Tea Lounge - After lunch we headed to a Dilmah Tea Lounge and drank a few teas all of which were very good.
Ministry of Crab - Rated as one of Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants, Ministry of Crab is one of the most iconic restaurant serving seafood and especially Sri Lankan crabs in Colombo. It’s a high end restaurant, with prices that go with it, but I do have to admit that it was extremely tasty. The river shrimp, the black pepper crab was delicious. Price - about 30,000 LKR ($165.53) per OMG crab - I think it’s overpriced - but it is good.

Blue train to Ella, Sri Lanka ????????
Blue train to Ella,
Come along for a ride on the blue train to ELLA. With my POV video you will see what to expect before and during the journey in the train and the views along the way. We were advised to go from Polonuvwa station instead of Kandy to avoid the crowds and get a seat - what can I say it didn’t work out that way. We managed to acquire two lovely seats after a couple of hours standing, some didn't and had to stand the full seven hour journey. After the heat, the pushing and shoving it was still a great experience not to be forgotten.

[한국어 정보]
콜롬보는 인도양을 횡단하는 선박의 기항지로 스리랑카 상업과 무역의 중심지다. 도시에 들어서자 시끄러운 경적 소리가 나를 맞이한다. 예전 스리랑카 사람들은 대부분의 종교는 불교였지만 지금은 힌두교, 이슬람교, 기독교도 많아졌다고 한다. 생동감 넘치는 도시 풍경 속에서 내 눈에 들어온 건 바퀴가 3개 달려 ‘쓰리휠러‘라 불리는 3륜 택시다. 기차역으로 이동하기 위해 이 택시를 타기로 했다. “안녕하세요?” “안녕하세요” “콜롬보 기차역으로 가주세요” 그런데 고개를 가로 저으며 안 간다고 한다. 다시 물어봤지만 역시나 대답은 같다. “이거 안 간다는데요?” “아니에요. 이거 스리랑카에서는 ‘예스’라는 거예요” 스리랑카에서는 고개를 저으면 ‘네’ 라는 뜻이라고 한다. 난 잠시 ‘승차거부인가?‘ 하고 생각했지만 오해였다. 포르투갈, 네덜란드를 거쳐 영국의 지배를 받았던 스리랑카. 도시 곳곳에선 당시에 지어진 유럽풍 건물들을 볼 수 있다. 1906년 백화점으로 지어진 이 건물은 110년이 넘은 지금까지 손님을 맞이하고 있다. 이번 여행은 대부분 기차를 타고 이동하려 한다.

Colombo is the center of commerce and trade in Sri Lanka as a port of call for ships across the Indian Ocean. As I entered the city, the loud horn sounds greet me. In ancient Sri Lankans most religions were Buddhist, but now Hindus, Muslims, and Christians have also increased. In a vibrant cityscape, my eyes come in three wheels, a three wheeled taxi called a 'three wheeler'. I decided to take this taxi to go to the train station. Hello? Hello Please go to Colombo Railway Station. I asked again, but the answer is the same. Are not you going to do this? No. In Sri Lanka, it means yes. In Sri Lanka, it means yes. I thought for a moment, Are you refusing to ride? It was a misunderstanding. Sri Lanka was dominated by Britain through Portugal and Holland. Throughout the city, you can see European buildings built at the time. Built in 1906 as a department store, the building has been welcoming guests for over 110 years. Most of this trip is about going on a train.

Sri Lanka 3 - The grass isn't always green
Travel Video 004 - Sri Lanka || Backpacking Asia - 2nd & 3rd week ||
As I promised, I’ll be trying to document everything, the good the bad and the norm. Well here goes the bad, possibly something that not a lot of travelling documenters will tell you.
We went to Udawalawe for a wild safari. A jeep picked us up at 5am and
while going on our way to the park, while riding this jeep, I just felt empty and sad. I never felt like this in all my life. I also just had one of the worst days mentally the day before. For some reason, I was angry at myself for not being able to be excited just minutes before I was about to witness wild elephants for the first time. I was also so annoyed that I’m finally realising a dream, travelling but I was feeling shit.
The weather plays a big part in my mood in life. I hate grey skies, it’s so monotonous. It’s monsoon season in Sri Lanka, so it rained every single day, but the first week was still great with plenty of sunshine till 3pm, with rain starting after so we still got a lot done. But after week 1, it was constant grey, rain and thunderstorms.
I think my empty feeling was a combination of factors. The rain, missing my girlfriend, family, and friends, comparing every moment to what I normally do at home, the fact that we were so far away from the ocean for days, feeling selfish for missing important events back home etc.. I was so demotivated, it took me 4 days to edit 30 seconds of this video on youtube. I had no inspiration whatsoever. The ironic thing is that while I was feeling like this, Unilad Adventure had just posted my Kefalonia video, something I had been dreaming of for years, a video which I encourage people to go out, do what they love, chase their dreams and to travel. I was travelling and it didn’t seem great.
On that jeep ride, I sincerely thought about stopping everything and going back.
But later on the day, we caught a bus to the southern beaches and witnessed a spectacular sunset, and all of a sudden this burst of happiness came, and the happy feeling was one of the best I ever got. I literally was tearing up I was so happy.
Ever since then (3 weeks later), I’ve been much much better and things are great again. I feel great, I’m so inspired and I’m loving it again. Yes I still miss people and things back at home, but I'm so happy to be doing this again.
Just remember to keep going and don't let a few days of emptiness be the factor of quitting. The grass isn't always green but there's always a sunset to cheer you up.
14 months of travel, starting with 8 months of travel in Asia.

Dubai to Kandy. Luxury Flight, Frugality Bus. ????????
Life is more fun when you live by the extremes. That's why my 9 hour journey from Dubai to Kandy was half in a business class seat and half standing in a third class bus.
Most people would have taken an economy flight and then a taxi to Kandy, but I'm not most people. I'm always looking for a different experience than what's normal.
On previous trips to Sri Lanka I've always traveled from the airport to Colombo before going elsewhere. This time I discovered something that they don't tell you in the guidebooks, that there's a bus station 10 minutes walk away from the airport where you can catch a direct bus to Kandy. No need to travel into Colombo first.
